wemo maker compatibility with wemo bridge

Wemo maker is one of the best solutions for smart gate and garage door openers on the market, with the compatibility of wemo bridge it would be the best! Come on guys please re consider its extinction and add it back to your line up.. While addressing the KRACK issue would be perfect! please please please add it to the wemo bridge to work with homekit , some of us really love its brilliance.

That said, for apple users that can stomach running a hub on an android device I'm getting ready to release a new home bridge app that will work with AutomationManager to give you control from HomeKit of all the devices AutomationManager supports including the Wemo Maker and Wemo Link as well as Hue, TP Link, and custom ESP8266 devices (including a replacement maker for under $10).

Yes Belkin, please make the bridge work with our wemo makers so we can say Siri open the door!!! I personally have been waiting a very long time to use siri with my wemos...I am crushed I cant use it for the most important of all...opening the garage door! Please update the bridge to allow this, thanks Louise

+1 for me - I've got 3 wemo switches and 2 wemo light switched and 1 wemo maker. I have a Wemo motion sensor so in my garage the light turns on automatically when I open the internal access door and it all works pretty well.

BUT - There is often a lag using the Wemo app, especially when opening the garage door when I pull up and my phone is just switching to wifi from 4G and the wemo app gets very confused for a while.

I've read that with the Home Bridge all of the lag with Wemo devices it gone, plus the Siri integration would be good but there is no use me buying one when my Maker is not supported.

Its also very sad that they no longer sell the Maker or the Motion Sensor kit as these really added to the Wemo platform.

I'm looking to switch away from Wemo product altogether now. Just got my first Koogeek switch so fingers crossed they make a Maker type device!

Forgot to say the other feature the Homekit brings. And thats the ability for my phone to control Wemo devices at two locations (Home and Office). Currently I use IFTTT to control my wemo light switch and heater at my office - It would be nice to have the Homekit Hub at both locations.
